72c3368856 nodemask.h: remove macro any_online_node
The macro any_online_node() is prone to producing sparse warnings due to
the local symbol 'node'.  Since all the in-tree users are really
requesting the first online node (the mask argument is either
NODE_MASK_ALL or node_online_map) just use the first_online_node macro and
remove the any_online_node macro since there are no users.

6457474624 vmscan: detect mapped file pages used only once
The VM currently assumes that an inactive, mapped and referenced file page
is in use and promotes it to the active list.

However, every mapped file page starts out like this and thus a problem
arises when workloads create a stream of such pages that are used only for
a short time.  By flooding the active list with those pages, the VM
quickly gets into trouble finding eligible reclaim canditates.  The result
is long allocation latencies and eviction of the wrong pages.

This patch reuses the PG_referenced page flag (used for unmapped file
pages) to implement a usage detection that scales with the speed of LRU
list cycling (i.e.  memory pressure).

If the scanner encounters those pages, the flag is set and the page cycled
again on the inactive list.  Only if it returns with another page table
reference it is activated.  Otherwise it is reclaimed as 'not recently
used cache'.

This effectively changes the minimum lifetime of a used-once mapped file
page from a full memory cycle to an inactive list cycle, which allows it
to occur in linear streams without affecting the stable working set of the
system.

452aa6999e mm/pm: force GFP_NOIO during suspend/hibernation and resume
There are quite a few GFP_KERNEL memory allocations made during
suspend/hibernation and resume that may cause the system to hang, because
the I/O operations they depend on cannot be completed due to the
underlying devices being suspended.

Avoid this problem by clearing the __GFP_IO and __GFP_FS bits in
gfp_allowed_mask before suspend/hibernation and restoring the original
values of these bits in gfp_allowed_mask durig the subsequent resume.

fc148a5f7e mm: remove VM_LOCK_RMAP code
When a VMA is in an inconsistent state during setup or teardown, the worst
that can happen is that the rmap code will not be able to find the page.

The mapping is in the process of being torn down (PTEs just got
invalidated by munmap), or set up (no PTEs have been instantiated yet).

It is also impossible for the rmap code to follow a pointer to an already
freed VMA, because the rmap code holds the anon_vma->lock, which the VMA
teardown code needs to take before the VMA is removed from the anon_vma
chain.

Hence, we should not need the VM_LOCK_RMAP locking at all.

c44b674323 rmap: move exclusively owned pages to own anon_vma in do_wp_page()
When the parent process breaks the COW on a page, both the original which
is mapped at child and the new page which is mapped parent end up in that
same anon_vma.  Generally this won't be a problem, but for some workloads
it could preserve the O(N) rmap scanning complexity.

A simple fix is to ensure that, when a page which is mapped child gets
reused in do_wp_page, because we already are the exclusive owner, the page
gets moved to our own exclusive child's anon_vma.

5beb493052 mm: change anon_vma linking to fix multi-process server scalability issue
The old anon_vma code can lead to scalability issues with heavily forking
workloads.  Specifically, each anon_vma will be shared between the parent
process and all its child processes.

In a workload with 1000 child processes and a VMA with 1000 anonymous
pages per process that get COWed, this leads to a system with a million
anonymous pages in the same anon_vma, each of which is mapped in just one
of the 1000 processes.  However, the current rmap code needs to walk them
all, leading to O(N) scanning complexity for each page.

This can result in systems where one CPU is walking the page tables of
1000 processes in page_referenced_one, while all other CPUs are stuck on
the anon_vma lock.  This leads to catastrophic failure for a benchmark
like AIM7, where the total number of processes can reach in the tens of
thousands.  Real workloads are still a factor 10 less process intensive
than AIM7, but they are catching up.

This patch changes the way anon_vmas and VMAs are linked, which allows us
to associate multiple anon_vmas with a VMA.  At fork time, each child
process gets its own anon_vmas, in which its COWed pages will be
instantiated.  The parents' anon_vma is also linked to the VMA, because
non-COWed pages could be present in any of the children.

This reduces rmap scanning complexity to O(1) for the pages of the 1000
child processes, with O(N) complexity for at most 1/N pages in the system.
 This reduces the average scanning cost in heavily forking workloads from
O(N) to 2.

The only real complexity in this patch stems from the fact that linking a
VMA to anon_vmas now involves memory allocations.  This means vma_adjust
can fail, if it needs to attach a VMA to anon_vma structures.  This in
turn means error handling needs to be added to the calling functions.

A second source of complexity is that, because there can be multiple
anon_vmas, the anon_vma linking in vma_adjust can no longer be done under
"the" anon_vma lock.  To prevent the rmap code from walking up an
incomplete VMA, this patch introduces the VM_LOCK_RMAP VMA flag.  This bit
flag uses the same slot as the NOMMU VM_MAPPED_COPY, with an ifdef in mm.h
to make sure it is impossible to compile a kernel that needs both symbolic
values for the same bitflag.

Some test results:

Without the anon_vma changes, when AIM7 hits around 9.7k users (on a test
box with 16GB RAM and not quite enough IO), the system ends up running
>99% in system time, with every CPU on the same anon_vma lock in the
pageout code.

With these changes, AIM7 hits the cross-over point around 29.7k users.
This happens with ~99% IO wait time, there never seems to be any spike in
system time.  The anon_vma lock contention appears to be resolved.

0141450f66 readahead: introduce FMODE_RANDOM for POSIX_FADV_RANDOM
This fixes inefficient page-by-page reads on POSIX_FADV_RANDOM.

POSIX_FADV_RANDOM used to set ra_pages=0, which leads to poor performance:
a 16K read will be carried out in 4 _sync_ 1-page reads.

In other places, ra_pages==0 means
- it's ramfs/tmpfs/hugetlbfs/sysfs/configfs
- some IO error happened
where multi-page read IO won't help or should be avoided.

POSIX_FADV_RANDOM actually want a different semantics: to disable the
*heuristic* readahead algorithm, and to use a dumb one which faithfully
submit read IO for whatever application requests.

So introduce a flag FMODE_RANDOM for POSIX_FADV_RANDOM.

Note that the random hint is not likely to help random reads performance
noticeably.  And it may be too permissive on huge request size (its IO
size is not limited by read_ahead_kb).

In Quentin's report (http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/12/24/145), the overall
(NFS read) performance of the application increased by 313%!

d96ae53091 memory-hotplug: create /sys/firmware/memmap entry for new memory
A memmap is a directory in sysfs which includes 3 text files: start, end
and type.  For example:

start: 	0x100000
end:	0x7e7b1cff
type:	System RAM

Interface firmware_map_add was not called explicitly.  Remove it and add
function firmware_map_add_hotplug as hotplug interface of memmap.

Each memory entry has a memmap in sysfs, When we hot-add new memory, sysfs
does not export memmap entry for it.  We add a call in function add_memory
to function firmware_map_add_hotplug.

Add a new function add_sysfs_fw_map_entry() to create memmap entry, it
will be called when initialize memmap and hot-add memory.

increasing atomic ops in it can reduce kernel performance a bit.

Thus, this patch revert such commit partially. at least
all_unreclaimable shouldn't share memory word with other zone flags.

b084d4353f mm: count swap usage
A frequent questions from users about memory management is what numbers of
swap ents are user for processes.  And this information will give some
hints to oom-killer.

Besides we can count the number of swapents per a process by scanning
/proc/<pid>/smaps, this is very slow and not good for usual process
information handler which works like 'ps' or 'top'.  (ps or top is now
enough slow..)

This patch adds a counter of swapents to mm_counter and update is at each
swap events.  Information is exported via /proc/<pid>/status file as

34e55232e5 mm: avoid false sharing of mm_counter
Considering the nature of per mm stats, it's the shared object among
threads and can be a cache-miss point in the page fault path.

This patch adds per-thread cache for mm_counter.  RSS value will be
counted into a struct in task_struct and synchronized with mm's one at
events.

Now, in this patch, the event is the number of calls to handle_mm_fault.
Per-thread value is added to mm at each 64 calls.

 rough estimation with small benchmark on parallel thread (2threads) shows
 [before]
     4.5 cache-miss/faults
 [after]
     4.0 cache-miss/faults
 Anyway, the most contended object is mmap_sem if the number of threads grows.

This is needed for supporting multiple mount points.

We can find out the device names to be used with mount by checking

/sys/devices/virtio-pci/virtio*/device file

if the device file have value 9 then the specific virtio device can
be used for mounting.

ex:
 #cat /sys/devices/virtio-pci/virtio1/device
 9

now we can mount using
# mount -t 9p -o trans=virtio virtio1  /mnt/

907f4554e2 dquot: move dquot initialization responsibility into the filesystem
Currently various places in the VFS call vfs_dq_init directly.  This means
we tie the quota code into the VFS.  Get rid of that and make the
filesystem responsible for the initialization.   For most metadata operations
this is a straight forward move into the methods, but for truncate and
open it's a bit more complicated.

For truncate we currently only call vfs_dq_init for the sys_truncate case
because open already takes care of it for ftruncate and open(O_TRUNC) - the
new code causes an additional vfs_dq_init for those which is harmless.

For open the initialization is moved from do_filp_open into the open method,
which means it happens slightly earlier now, and only for regular files.
The latter is fine because we don't need to initialize it for operations
on special files, and we already do it as part of the namespace operations
for directories.

Add a dquot_file_open helper that filesystems that support generic quotas
can use to fill in ->open.

5fb324ad24 quota: move code from sync_quota_sb into vfs_quota_sync
Currenly sync_quota_sb does a lot of sync and truncate action that only
applies to "VFS" style quotas and is actively harmful for the sync
performance in XFS.  Move it into vfs_quota_sync and add a wait parameter
to ->quota_sync to tell if we need it or not.

My audit of the GFS2 code says it's also not needed given the way GFS2
implements quotas, but I'd be happy if this can get a detailed review.

8c4e4acd66 quota: clean up Q_XQUOTASYNC
Currently Q_XQUOTASYNC calls into the quota_sync method, but XFS does something
entirely different in it than the rest of the filesystems.  xfs_quota which
calls Q_XQUOTASYNC expects an asynchronous data writeout to flush delayed
allocations, while the "VFS" quota support wants to flush changes to the quota
file.

So make Q_XQUOTASYNC call into the writeback code directly and make the
quota_sync method optional as XFS doesn't need in the sense expected by the
rest of the quota code.

GFS2 was using limited XFS-style quota and has a quota_sync method fitting
neither the style used by vfs_quota_sync nor xfs_fs_quota_sync.  I left it
in for now as per discussion with Steve it expects to be called from the
sync path this way.
